Barbados is teeming with incredible year-round attractions and activities. Sail our seas aboard a graceful catamaran or lively pirate ship and tour our splendid natural wonders from coast to coast. Meet island artisans, visit Bridgetown’s beguiling boutiques, enjoy fresh seafood on our picturesque harbor and savor the evening sunset or step out and sample the pulsating nightlife. Or better yet just settle into your beach chair and watch the yachts ease by. However you choose to fill your days on Barbados, they’re guaranteed to be some of your most memorable.

Climate & when to go

The climate in Barbados tends to be nice year-round: in January, the average daily high temperature is 28°C (83°F), while the low average is 21°C (70°F). In July, the average daily high is 30°C (86°F), while the average low is 23°C (74°F). February to May are the driest months (April averages only seven days of rain), while July is the wettest month with some 18 days of rain.

The tourist high season runs from mid-December through mid-April. June through October is the hurricane season: September and October are the most humid months and have the highest hurricane risk – although many years see none.

Like the rest of the region, the temperate season is also high season, so expect prices to peak December to April. Other times Barbados is wetter and hotter but also much cheaper.
